Meanwhile, WhatsApp noted that there is an urgent need for users to update it to the latest version of the app in order to chat with others enrolled in this program. Both calls and messages will not be supported if the other person is not using a recent version of WhatsApp.
The screenshot further read that users who join this program will be able to link up to four desktop devices including Facebook Portal at once. The screenshots also revealed that the option to join this program will be available in the Settings menu under the WhatsApp Web/Desktop option.
Once users click on the WhatsApp Web Beta program, they will be greeted with a prompt that says “Join the new WhatsApp Web Beta, which no longer requires that you keep your phone connected.” Clicking on the ‘Got it’ button makes users enrol in the program. However, this program isn’t available yet.
Meanwhile, according to the reports, the Facebook-owned messaging platform is officially working on to change the playback speed for voice messages on WhatsApp for Android and iOS. The feature is under development, so it’s not visible to the public.
